Across the UK and Europe, those who pre-order Hyrule Warriors will receive a real-life replica of Link's sky-blue scarf.

In the US the offer is more complex. Alternate costumes for certain characters will be available as pre-order DLC from a variety of retailers, and Nintendo has suggested these alternate costumes will tie in with previous Zelda games such as Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword.

Meanwhile, Club Nintendo members who buy the game within four weeks will be able to download a set of alternate Ganondorf costumes (from Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess) for free. This deal is only available to those who register the game on Club Nintendo within four weeks of the game's release date.

When was Sheik's gender in so much doubt that Nintendo had to issue an official statement?

I thought this was decided way back in like 1998.

Video game fans will get the chance to play as the baddest bad guy of The Legend of Zelda video game series. Ganondorf, nemesis of Link and aspiring Triforce owner, will become a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming Hyrule Warriors video game, which launches Sept. 26 for the Wii U home console. Nintendo revealed new information about Hyrule Warriors during a Nintendo Direct video.

Hyrule Warriors combines two classic video game franchises, The Legend of Zelda and Dynasty Warriors, and challenges players to face off against hordes of enemies in epic battles. Some of the information discussed in the Nintendo Direct included:

• Adventure Mode: Players are faced with a grid of challenges that looks like the map from The Legend of Zelda on NES. Completing each challenge unlocks a new region of the map, and with it, a new level of Adventure Mode. Certain characters and weapons can only be unlocked in Adventure Mode.

• Costumes: Club Nintendo members who buy and register Hyrule Warriors within four weeks of launch will receive a set of alternate Ganondorf costumes as free in-game downloadable content. More details will be made available on club.nintendo.com. For certain other characters, Nintendo will make downloadable alternate costumes available as pre-order bonuses from select retailers in North America. Nintendo will announce more information about how to get these cosmetic add-ons in the future.

• Playable Characters: In addition to Ganondorf, players can opt to play as various characters from The Legend of Zelda universe. Each character carries his or her own specialty weapons: Link (Hylian Sword), Princess Zelda (Rapier), Impa (Giant Blade), Midna (Shackle), Sheik (Harp), Agitha (Parasol), Darunia (Hammer), Princess Ruto (Zora Scale), Zant (Scimitar), Fi (Goddess Blade), Ghirahim (Demon Blade) and Lana (Book of Sorcery).

• Weapons: A Chain Chomp will make a guest appearance as a weapon. As the story advances, new weapons will become available to some characters, such as the Magic Rod for Link, the Baton for Zelda and Spear for Lana. Weapons have special abilities called Skills that increase attack damage, or perhaps increase the chance of finding Hearts. Filling the Focus Spirit magic gauge will temporarily increase a character’s abilities and help to mow down huge numbers of enemies. And Bombchus are back, just bigger and more explosive.

• Game Play: Players can level their characters up to increase HP and attack skill, or they can grab materials dropped by defeated monsters to craft Badges to increase a weapon’s number of attacks, create longer combos or extend Focus Spirit time.

• Co-Op Mode: Two players can play a local co-op match, with one player looking at the TV and the other looking at the Wii U GamePad controller. Single players can also play on the TV, or using only the GamePad in off-TV play.

• Locations: Players will face down hordes of enemies in familiar locations, such as Skyloft from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Lake Hylia from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Twilight Field from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

• Classic Zelda Elements: Players will recognize items from their favorite Zelda games, including bombs, arrows and a Hookshot. The game is filled with familiar Zelda staples, such as Cuccos, Rupees, Gold Skulltulas and plenty of grass cutting.

Ocarina of Time DLC a Gamestop Exclusive

Hyrule Warriors’ bonus pre-order costumes from Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword are being split up differently in North America.

In Japan, you get bonus costumes from the aforementioned games for Zelda, Link and Ganondorf depending on which special edition of the game you buy. The most special—the “Treasure Box” version—contains costumes for all three. In North America, the costumes are being split up by retailer.

The Ganondorf costumes (from Ocarina and Twilight—he has no Skyward Sword costume) will be available to anyone that buys Hyrule Warriors and registers the game on Club Nintendo before a certain date. Meanwhile, the Ocarina of Time costumes for Zelda and Link are exclusive to GameStop.

[Ratatapa]

Preorder from Gamestop for the OoT Link and Zelda skins. Registering it on Club Nintendo is just for Ganondorf.

I'd be willing to bet that NA doesn't buy a lot of costume DLC, so they do it this way so retailers can entice orders to their particular stores. I'd rather both options or unlockable in game.

[Scythiroth]

Twilight Princess Costume from Amazon

Well, I usually order from Amazon anyways and Twilight Princess is my favorite Zelda, so, yay I guess.

It will be the norm until people stop preordering.

When it stops printing companies money, they stop doing it.

Novel concept.
